JimF-LowBari Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) D'OH that's what I get for reading when I should be catching ZZZZs. Can't read straight across lines. Well at least Jeff was there when I did "part time" corps in 84-85. IOW - parade Euph and doing main guard with Pete and Al. Woo Hoo, few hours until Crown Royal... err Crown Plaza Mini corps and SIB tonight. :) Edited April 14, 2007 by JimF-3rdBari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimF-LowBari Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 (edited) Anybody wanna start a mini corps? I call drum set! That looks like fun! Been thinking that since DCA 2005 when I saw my first Mini Corps contest. First corps I saw that night wuz da Good ol' Tunder-boids.... I got a 3 valve Bari to play and a 2 valve Bari to loan out. B) Biggest headache is getting the music and making sure all the legal BS set to get the rights to play it. (Had a long talk with one of the Mini corps members Saturday aftenoon.)

JimF-LowBari Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 yeah...everything is so "legal" anymore! 1976 I recorded the entire Hershey show from the stands with my handy dandy cheapo Radio Shack (mono) tape recorder. You should see the look of horror I get when I tell that to people today. And I know I wasn't the only one that night. And how manypartial SIB tapes do I have in my cellar (more of Radio Shacks "finest"). Wonder how many small and Alumni type corps don't have a recording 'cause they're afraid of gittin in trouble with John Law. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(all cruddy quality mono stuff too!) I think I have a mixed tape someone made that has Westshore from the 78 Hershey show and The Bridgemen from 78 DCI East! not to mention SIB, and other shows! I used to force my parents to tape take pictures and film (8mm) shows! Some day I'll be able to go through them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
